This picture makes me irrationally angry. You do you, but if I'm gonna travel far from home to explore the ancient ruins of a long gone civilization, I'm not gonna bring a fucking gameboy or whatever that is to play some goddamn pokemon. Seriously, wtf, and PS, when did I turn into Calvin's dad?

Understandable, but this picture is from my hotel waiting for my wife getting ready for the night out, so no time wasted and I had some peaceful rest.

Good points. Also they clearly haven't played the Pokemon TCG.

Cause there's never any downtime between events on a vacation, or you know, maybe it's the end of the night and he's just winding down before going to bed.

To be fair, you could bring it to play in your hotel at the end of the day just before bed and/or for the trip to and from your destination. But other than those times, yeah, leave it in the hotel room or in your luggage.

Isn't this the only worthwhile scenario for taking handhelds with you on trips?

Definitely the complaining dude did not think this through.
